My scholarship

By Mohd Khairul

I am now 25 years old and was graduated from UiTM with a Bachelor in IT in early 2005 and currently work with one of the subsidiary of Synergy Drive, the Company who sponsored my studies.

I just want to share some experience when I first look for scholarship. Unlike the current generation, during my time the process of getting info scholarship is merely rely on newpaper advertisement. We don’t have website like Malaysia-scholarship.net etc to refer to.

But the obstacle never stop me from searching for scholarship as we know, the ads will normally appear in the newspaper sometime in Feb/March and always in the STAR (Saturday) and Mingguan Malaysia (Sunday), so I will make sure not to miss to buy these 2 newspaper.

I end up by sending 3 applications to Golden Hope and another 2 companies which I can’t recall…. I was called for Golden Hope interview and this will be my first interview in my life.

So what I did is to find out more details about the Company, about the programme of study and also practice in front of the mirror. During the interview, I felt so nervous, the office environment, the panel make me worst. But luckily, I can answer all questions they asked. TQ for my early preparation and of cause my father guidance too.

2 weeks later I receive their offer letter and was called for briefing. They briefed me about my responsibilities, the scholarship and also my scholarship bond. Every semester I have to submit my result and for pratical training it was made compulsory to have it in the Group. After 3 years of studies, I finally graduated and was offered a permanent job there and I still here serving my bond and I am basically happy with what I am doin now.

Thank you again to Synergy Drive .
